favorite food(s):

Giant Oarfish

Seafood

These oddball fish can grow to be eighty feet long and are hardly ever seen unless they die and float to the surface. Water dragons consider it a feast if one can be caught alive.

Lesser Bluehorn

Insect

This massive beetle has one of the hardest shells in existence, making it a real chore to break apart and eat. Might as well have called it Crab Dinner Beetle.

Ziro is the progenitor of Astéri Sōlis. How he came to be in this position is rather convoluted; travelers spread word of Astéri Connatus' tale- two Fae that started a clan from their resolve and perseverance. This inspired Titania, wanting to provide a similar refuge in Dragonhome. Having reached out to Astéri Lune's Progenitors, they agreed to provide assistance, considering This clan to be an extension of theirs. Despite the differing deities, Fharamire believes expanding their horizons, even if the divine are involved, to be favorable.

For years, Ziro had wandered the shattered plain aimlessly, pondering his origin, but most of all, his purpose. A Guardian without a charge is not but a mere hatchling, a husk of what a mighty dragon could be. It wasn't until on a particularly rainy day, a pixie appeared before him, tugging his beard frantically, where it led him to the side of a young Fae, starving and cold. After tending to her for a while, she quickly made a full recovery, and learned her name to be Titania. He didn't wish to leave this fledgling alone, so he took her under his wing.

They traveled together, Ziro still on his Search. He had thought for sure Titania could be his charge, but there was never a true moment of realization. It was when she had a desire to start a refuge for vagrants like themselves, when they reached out to a clan for assistance... Perhaps his Charge was the idea of a clan of his own. It was worth a try, at the very least. This is when a passing traveler mentioned their tale to be much like the progenitors of Astéri Lune, to which they headed to Starfall Isles posthaste.

Now, Ziro spends much of his time doing work as the progenitor to Astéri Sōlis. He also has to take care of Titania, as she's still rather young. He certainly has his work cut out for him, but he diligently takes care of every responsibility that comes his way, including tea time with pixies (which Titania claims to be VERY important). He does feel a great respect for the pixies, though, as they are what led him to Titania. The clan is just as much for them as it is for dragons.

He's an incredibly assiduous, always focusing on his responsibilities, thus doesn't socialize often. When he can, he enjoys spending time with all of his clanmates, feeling as though each one of them is his Charge. He's a very affable man, doing his best to please everyone. Titania and others often have to force him to take breaks and look after himself, as he's prone to sacrificing his free time to assist others. Ziro is too much of a dragon-pleaser, but is gradually learning to worry about himself when necessary.
